Thank you for your continued support
Application form 1 below is for pupils aged 5 to 10 years old, so will only affect your ECCs, Primary and Special schools. It will only affect your ECCs at this point if a pupil has deferred entry to primary. All other ECC pupils will not be aged 5 until 1 March 2027. This card was previously known as the NEC Junior Card and is now known as the Kidz Kard. East Ayrshire did not use the NEC Junior card as we had our own version The Shout Card. The Shout Card will continue to be administered by Vibrant Communities but will not include the Free Bus Service Travel chip. Parents must apply for this card on behalf of their child. We will only accept applications from parents registered as the main contact for each pupil.

For pupils under the age of 16 parents must apply for the National Entitlement Card on behalf of their child. We will only accept applications from parents registered as the main contact for each pupil. Parents have the option of having the Young Scot branding and / or The PASS Hologram and / or the Free Bus Travel added to this card.

Reminder: Parent’s Night – 6th October 2026
Parent’s evening appointments are available by telephoning the school office.
You will have an opportunity to speak with the teacher and see the work your children have been doing.
Attendance at school is a National and Local priority. This is because non attendance has such a high impact on children’s progress not just academically but socially and emotionally also. The illustration below captures what absence looks like.
To assist parents to be aware of the percentage their child has been attending, a text will be sent out at the beginning of each week, starting this week, with the overall attendance for every pupil. Parents of any pupil falling below 90% should contact the school to speak with Mrs Milne to discuss supporting their child’s attendance.
Please note that the earlier in the term that your child is absent, the bigger impact that will be seen on the percentage attendance.
Thank you for your support.
Congratulations to our new House Captains and Vice Captains on their election.
